Your paycheck makes your financial plans possible, and DI can help protect those plans.
DI replaces a portion of your paycheck when an income-interrupting illness or injury prevents you from working.
You can use the monthly DI benefit for essential expenses like your mortgage, utilities, groceries, and premiums for other insurance coverage.
